Clint Lilienthal Eliminated

[user40108]

Tony Merksick limped in under the gun. Clint Lilienthal, who was next to act, raised to 3,000. Action folded over to Robert Wisiak who thought for a bit before re-raising to 10,000. Merksick folded and Lilienthal, who didn't have much more, pushed his entire stack across the felt. Wisiak called the slight re-raise and it was heads up. The players showed:

Lilienthal: {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}
Wisiak: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}

Lilienthal knew he was in a great spot to pick up some much needed chips. His mood quickly changed however when the flop came down {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}. Things went from bad to worse for Lilienthal when the {9-Clubs} came off on the turn. Lilienthal could do nothing but shrug as he headed towards the exit. Wisiak stacked the pot and seems to be on a hot streak early in Day 2.
